Application deadline for Boston Teacher Residency

Boston Teacher Residency, an AmeriCorps program, is a nationally recognized clinical teacher preparation program whose graduates support student achievement from day one and who stay in teaching, continuing to refine and improve their practice.

Created in 2002 as a joint initiative between the Boston Public Schools and Boston Plan for Excellence, we designed BTR to meet the evolving needs of Boston’s children and families, and we have since prepared a diverse group of over 600 teachers in high need areas such as math, science and special education.

BTR combines a yearlong classroom apprenticeship with targeted master’s level coursework to provide you with the hands-on experience, feedback, evaluation and ongoing post-graduate support critical to a successful career in teaching.  Upon graduation, you will join a network of more than 600 teachers who are among the most effective in Massachusetts.

We recruit talented recent college graduates as well as career changers.

During the Residency Year, Residents:

• Co-teach with collaborating teachers and experienced teacher educators

• Earn a M.Ed. awarded by UMass Boston

• Earn MA Initial Teacher Licensure

• Receive a living stipend and health benefits

A three year commitment to the BPS earns graduates:

  • Elementary (grades 1-5)
